It's time to clean the interior of my car. It's th half leather job from TVR, anybody got any idea what to use on the leather and what to use on the other stuff?

I'm not even sure what the other stuff is.

Cheers

I retreated my 14yo black leather seats with this stuff:

www.liquidleather.com

I bought theyre scuff master stuff and its really good. Comes with cleaner, scuff cover and conditioner that makes it smell like leather again (until it wears off anyway!)

Tis good stuff.

I've just tried G11 AND G12 from LiquidLeather. Seemed pretty good but a soft brush, like that you clean jewellry with, seemed to work pretty well.

You need to specify the colour when you order. Where can I find this out from. Mine's a sort of tan. Any ideas what to clean the ambla with?

I think that only applies to the scuff repair stuff.

Right. That's the leather sorted. Vinyl cleaner? Anybody? Anybody?

I've heard people recommend the Autoglym interior cleaning stuff but I have not used it myself. I usually just use a damp cloth.

I use the Autoglym interior shampoo on the vinyl then lightly brush with warm water then pad dry with paper towel you will be surprised at how much grime comes out, then treat with Autoglym vinyl and rubber care.
As for the leather Autoglym leather treatment seems to work well.

and what would the panel recommend for a fresh smell?

I recently carried a load of rotting grass to the tip in the Disco and eversince there has been a smell which no amount of febreeze removes. I've had the carpets out and panels off and can't find anything trapped. It is just a general stink
